Showing an operator is (or not) closed on $L^2(\mathbb{R})$
I am linearizing nonlinear waves and get operators of the form below. Everything is considered in $L^2(\mathbb{R})$.
Consider the operator $L_1=\frac{d}{dx}$. The domain is $H^1(\mathbb{R})$ and it is ...

Operator theory of the Hessian
How can I learn more about the operator theory of the Hessian? The Hessian of a function $u : \Omega \rightarrow \mathbb R$ over a domain $\Omega \subseteq \mathbb R^n$ is the matrix of second ...

Spectrum equals eigenvalues for unbounded operator
Let $D$ be an unbounded densely defined operator on a separable Hilbert space $H$. If $D$ is diagonalisable with all eigenvalues having finite multiplicity and growing towards infinity, does it follow ...

Do the domains of the two square roots of a positive (unbounded) operator coincide? [closed]
Let $H$ be a Hilbert space and $D:\mathrm{Dom}(D) \to H$ a densely defined operator on $H$. We further assume that $D$ is closed and self-adjoint. If we further assume that $D$ is positive, then we ...
